The Right Thing
by Paul Smith

Album: No Frills


It's five o'clock on a Thursday
And the office staff is leaving for the day
But John the junior executive stays late
To do some work the corporate way
The boss says make the books look good
We both will reap a lucrative return
Just change around a few facts and figures
No one will know, no one will learn
But he said...

No, that's not the right thing to do
No, I've got the right to refuse
No, I've got the freedom to choose
No

Now Sherry is the sweetheart of her college
Big time sorority, do cheer
The first girl from her middle class town
To make it high in high society
But she was running out of money
When a man said
"I need some models, I'm paying cash
What would be the harm, baby, in posing
For some harmless photographs"
But she said...

No, that's not the right thing to do
No, I've got the right to refuse
No, I don't need your kind of blues
No

No
No, just say no

Sitting in our easy chairs
It's safe to call things black and white
But when the pressure pushes you
Boy, it's a fine line between wrong and right
As long as we are living here
No one will find exemption from the fight
But deep inside, He gives the power
To help us do the things we know are right
We just say...

No, that's not the right thing to do
No, I've got the right to refuse
No, God gives us freedom to choose
No

We just say no

No
No, just say no

Just say no
